A Hong Kong icon, Cathay Pacific has been a strong, award-winning, global brand for more than 70 years. The acquisition of Cathay Dragon in 2006 strengthened both our footprint and our reputation. Our two airlines never stop, and our teams keep our operations and our passengers ‘travelling well’ 24/7, 365 days of the year. To continue to strengthen our brand we have embarked upon the most exciting business transformation in our history. We are always looking for talented people and there has never been a more exciting time to join!
